  1. that cant be a proper M3, or that vr6 is seriously tuned! an m3 would leave a vr standing, even a charged 1. could be a 328 which is why a charged vr pulled away
  2. not the stuff i ve got, its suitable for all types of filter. its a K&N filter recharger kit. i ve used it on paper and foam type, never caused a problem. and you will only get oil on the MAF if you over oil the filter
  3. use the K&N filter cleaner, will do exactly the same job
  4. im in norwich as well, if we could get a few more from this area to meet up that would be good. theres a RWYB day at pod in may if theres enough we could go up in convoy
  5. i got a mate whos got a clio 172 cup and that weighs almost 250kg less than the golf!! tell you what tho you can definately tell you're in a french car, its 9 years newer than my golf but the golf still feels more solid

    power

    the only difference between the 2.8 and 2.9 is bore and stroke. my obd1 golf vr6 made 184bhp stock, they usually seem to make slightly more power then vw figures. as for springs i ve just put a set of -30mm on that has made it look a whole lot better and stiffened it up slightly as well
  7. that'll be the carpi vr then!! now that IS a vr6 that a gtir will struggle to keep up with
  8. try the starter, i had the same problem on a peugeot gti and that turned out to be a bad connector on the starter, sorted that and it was fine
  9. there is no way a vr would pull away from a pulsar, unless the pulsar driver let the vr pull away! a vr would need some SERIOUS mods to get away from a pulsar. i raced an old skline (N reg) an R32 or what ever the older 1s are but it had to be a non turbo 1 cos i kept up with it, if it was turbo charged it would of left me for dust! maybe i under estimate the vr too much but anything like the pulsars, scoobys, evos infact most jap performance cars i leave alone!
  10. id say a bearing in one of the pulleys driven by the fan belt could be making the noise
  11. the pulsar is an incredable amount of fun and power for your money! doesnt have the german build quality nor the looks (no offence) but you dont buy them for that. if a gtir pulled up beside me i wouldnt even attempt to race it. personally i would love to own a pulsar despite their build quality and looks, its their reliabilty, tuneabilty and power that win me over!! fancy doin a swap its the insurance thats a killer
  12. anyone going on the 8th april? run what ya brung.
  13. 95k miles - chains, tensioners and followers recently done. running nicely i was under the impression that low mileage vr's were extinct but there still seems to be a fair few around!
  14. i work with someone who had an RS tuned to 250bhp, that was a great car to drive.........then he went and part-ex'd it for a clio 172 cup!!!!!!! what a loser!
